Your Sister’s Sister

Jack delivers a hostile eulogy at his brother’s funeral. Alarmed, Iris — Jack’s best friend and
his late brother’s girlfriend — offers him a getaway at her family’s weekend place on an island in
Puget Sound.

When Jack arrives, he is met with the unexpected company of Iris’ half sister, Hannah, whose
initial frostiness is melted considerably after a shared bottle of tequila. That thaw leads to
complications that only become more fraught once Iris surprises them with a visit of her own.

The film includes profanity and sexual content.

The Amazing Spider-Man

PG-13, $30.99

This reboot, to be released on Friday, takes audiences again through every step of Peter’s
transformation, including the fateful mutant spider bite, an equally pivotal incident involving his
beloved uncle and those first wobbly steps discovering his superpowers.

The result is that, for its first hour, it subjects viewers to an origin story they either
already know or will find drab and draggy.

Things pick up considerably once Peter dons the famous skintight suit, first as an urban avenger
on a personal mission, then doing battle with a super-monster called, appropriately, the
Lizard.
